You can do it yourself with something like this to trace the cables. Are all 12 cables unhooked??? Is there a Sat receiver??? If no receiver then the three unhooked cables are Ant in, Sat in, & TV out (will be a short cable to switching box "TV IN").
Are you in an area where you can receive over the air TV signals? Turn the TV ant amp on and all the TV's on a local channel and start hooking up the various cables to the "TV IN". If no air signals, can you run a coax from a TV in the house out to the MH as a signal? Hook it to the "TV IN" on the switching box and you should then be able to find the three TV cables. By feeding this signal in the cable TV from outside you can find the roof antenna cable by plugging ones into the "TV IN". Once you figure out several the problem gets easier.
